Genre Tropes are like Bunnies

My summer battle with the wild bunnies in our yard inspired the title for this episode, alone with too many copycat books which rely on tropes to grab readers' attention. This episode discussed what genre tropes are, writing tips on when to avoid falling into the trope trap, and how to use common tropes readers identify with for character and story development without creating a copycat story. Unfortunately, I have no useful advice for the bunnies.
